In my image is the app settings for Jerboa, and I can see that it will open links from those instances automatically (and it seems to work fine) - however, I’m on Lemmy.world, and it’s not one of them, so links there (or to other instances) open in a browser.
The “Add link” option is greyed out there. Is there anything I can do within Jerboa to enable more instances to play nice? Or is it something that the instances themselves would need to implement in some way?
Thanks!
I’m currently working on making it so that fediverse links opened in Jerboa will open in Jerboa. After that I think we could see about how to support that “add more links” setting in the UI.
That’d be fantastic. Thanks very much for all your work, it’s really made joining Lemmy a much better experience!
That would be wonderful! I don’t really understand how to add new instances to Jerboa right now.
Right now to add an instance you have to log into an account @thatInstance.
That’s too bad. I thought the point was that we could have one account and be able to visit other instances. Hopefully there will be another way to add instances through search or links.
You can visit communities in other instances by searching [email protected] but, to my knowledge you can’t get the “local” experience of other servers yet.
